 1 cup grated or matchstick carrots (about 2 grated carrots)
 5 cups plus ¼ cup vegetable broth, separated
 ¼ cup corn starch
 2.50 cups shredded cheddar cheese
 1.50 cups shredded pepperjack cheese
 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
 1 tbsp mustard
 ½ tsp salt and pepper, plus more to taste
1

Select saute mode on your pressure cooker. Melt butter in pressure cooker, and then add chopped onion. Cook until soft, around 3-5 minutes.

2

Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional one minute, stirring so the garlic does not burn.

3

Stir in 5 cups of vegetable broth, broccoli, carrots, salt and pepper.

4

Lock the lid into place and make sure the vent is set to seal. Put to high pressure for 1 minute.

5

When the cooking time ends, do a quick release of pressure. When the valve drops, carefully remove the lid.

6

In a separate bowl, whisk together additional ¼ cup of vegetable broth with ¼ cup of corn starch until there are no lumps.

7

Set the pressure cooker to sauté mode and allow soup to bubble. Slowly add cornstarch/broth mixture. Continue stirring until soup comes to a boil and thickens.

8

Turn the pressure cooker off. Add Greek yogurt and mustard, stir to combine.

9

Add cheese one handful at a time while stirring to prevent clumps.

10

Adjust salt and pepper to taste. Serve warm.
